Serca: AI-Powered Media Search Engine

"We find what the internet forgot"

đź§­ Table of Contents

What is Serca?

Serca is an AI-assisted search engine designed to help you find media and pages that normal search can’t surface easily. It builds a database by gathering URLs and descriptions, and it supports natural-language search so you can describe what you remember instead of guessing the “perfect keywords”.

How does this service work?

We’re committed to being transparent. Serca will keep a free tier that’s useful and safe, and a paid tier with extra features and higher query limits to help cover server + database costs.

The internet has amazing content… and some content that needs stricter handling. Serca uses a flagging system to control access to sensitive content.

Important: Illegal content is not allowed. If illegal content is discovered, it will be removed and reported to the proper authorities.

Under the hood

  • Multimodal AI models to understand image, video, and audio.
  • Web scraping + discovery to uncover hard-to-find pages.
  • Edge computing to process data closer to the source.

Sample Queries
